Murder on the Pizza Express, Dec 23, 2017

Location: AMC Tysons Corner 16, McLean, VA

My wife was doing a work class thing during the day, so left to my own devices I decided to catch a movie she didn't want to see: Murder on the Orient Express. While there, I thought, hey, I could use some food and they have some new flatbread pizza things here, so why not? Sure, movie theater pizza is often not great and always overpriced, but AMC is touting this as fancy and good. The posters made it look pretty good, so I took the plunge. How did it go? Well, after only a few minutes, they gave a pizza in a rectangular box and I took it to my seat. Once there, I opened it and saw this pizza log looking thing staring back at me: ...(more)

REVIEW: Mi Pi

Pizza and a movie? Yes!, Apr 20, 2019

Ever since a fateful day in the mid to late 80s when my dad said, "Whatever you want" and I got my first pepperoni pizza, pizza has been my favorite food. And that is exactly how I think pizza is best - pepperoni and cheese. Sure, some other toppings are fine from time to time, but for my money, I'll take extra pepperoni.
